Truck Fiye's Dinner and Presentations.
No. 5 Truck Company's comfortable
quarters on Communipaw avenue pre-
sented gala appearance last Thursday
night, with its flags and banners hung in
pretty folds around the hall and a yeritable
ladder of rare exotics occupying promi-
nent place at one end of the hall. It was
the occasion of a complimentary dinner
by the members of the company to Henry
Windecker president of the Board of Fire
Commissioners. The dinner was one of
which the laddies may justly be proud, and
the laddies are men of which President
Windecker may be equally proud. During
the evening Mayor Cleveland approached
President Windecker, and in a few well
chosen remarks presented him, on behalf
of the members of the company, with a
beautiful gold watch and chain. The inner
sida of the back case bore the inscription:
Presented to
HENRY wINDECKER,
President Board of Fire Commissioners,
by the Members of
Truck COMPANY No. S.
and their friends.
Feb, II, 1857.
This presentation was complete sur
prise to AIR. Windeeker, who accepted the
substantial recognition of his merit in APP
pr0priate terms.
